In 1992, Jean-Claude Rouzaud, oenologist and Board Chairman of Champagne Louis Roederer, acquired and combined two Cru Bourgeois vineyards in the heart of the Medoc's prestigious Saint-Estèphe appellation: Château Picard and Château Beauséjour. Together, these properties make up what is now called Château Haut-Beauséjour.

Wine EnthusiastThis is a modern, polished wine, solidly packed with dark tannins and dense fruits. A tough, tannic element shows through strongly, giving a counterpoint to the acidiy. Drink from 2017.

Wine SpectatorOffers a good mix of dark plum, raspberry coulis and red currant fruit flavors, with a high-pitched floral hint that weaves through the lively finish. A chalky echo lingers. Drink now through 2019. 10,000 cases made.
